Sound the Alarmist!!

I'm looking forward to JB's upcoming series on Global Warming. It has always been an issue that has concerned me, and with the news we've been hearing lately, there is serious "evidence" of the horrible effects right now in Greenland, Alaska, and points north.

More importantly, however, a very dear friend of mine, who considers himself to be moderate but right of center, argues with me that the "evidence" is the stuff of alarmist news. I happen to believe this is niave, and I'm frightened of his point of view, but he thinks I'm overreacting.

At the very least, we need more evidence and discussion about it. JB, show us the money!!

Turn That Frown Upside Down

This weekend I feel inverted.

It's something about the exgirlfriend I wanted to stay friends with, but whom I feel uncomfortable around now.
It's something about a good friend who has some strong opinions about politics & the state of the world which are in oposition to mine.
It's something about and interview that I don't want to go to on Sunday.
It's something about a girl I know, whom I'd like to ask out on a date, but I'm just afraid that my often dark view of the world would cause harm to the wonderful sunshine I see in her.
It's something about my disconnect with everything that a good Christian citizen is supposed to believe because I no longer understand the point in believing in God.
It's something about how much I love New York City, and I can't be with the one I love right now.
It's something about how I can't imagine loving the 'Burg I'm with.
It's something about how I hate driving.
It's something about how I love my cat, but I was never ready to be a pet owner.
It's something about how I miss my blog.

Anyway, I feel inverted this weekend.

Get Ready For A Mass Extinction

I'm still not really on line yet, but as the Evolution nerd I pretend to be, get ready for environmental changes that the creatures of the world may NOT be able to evolve fast enough to survive.

Read the linked news story and just imagine what is in store for us all. We will certainly be hearing more about global warming now that the effects are coming fast & furious, but I doubt there's much we can do to stop what is sure to be some mass extinctions.

Maybe the "end of the world" will come by flood again. And God said he promised no more floods. What a kidder!

In the meantime, buy some property in the Rocky Mountains. It'll all be beachfront soon enough.
